Diospyros whyteana
15 seeds
"Bladder nut"

This enticing little tree has so many wonderful features: dark
green, strikingly glossy leaves; creamy fragrant flowers; unusual
smooth, dark grey, almost black bark and distinctive reddish brown,
papery, balloon-like fruit pods. Altogether, it is a very attractive
and pleasing garden subject.
The
bladdernut is an evergreen shrub or small multi-stemmed tree with
a straight trunk that branches low down to form a dense, round to
pyramidal crown. The bark on young branches is yellow-green to pinkish,
covered by fine coppery hairs; but smooth and blackish grey on older
stems and branches. The shiny leaves, also with a fringe of ginger
hairs, are leathery, dark green above and lighter below. An occasional
bright red or orange leaf occurs adding to the overall attractiveness
of this plant.

Scented flowers, hanging from hairy stalks, appear in spring.
They are bell-shaped, white to creamy yellow and male and female
flowers occur on different trees.

The
fruits, borne throughout summer, are fleshy berries that turn scarlet
when ripe. They are enclosed in inflated, bladder-like capsules
that dry to red and remain on the tree for many months after the
fruit has fallen and so may be found on the trees at almost any
time of the year.
Diospyros is relatively slow-growing and can be cultivated
from seed, which should first be scratched (scarified) before sowing.
Fresh seed germinates readily in four to eight weeks.
